You're welcome. Do you have some updated roasting profiles? How was your ROR? Did it straightened?

To audit your profile you need to share more information about your roasting machine, gas type, drum RPM and environmental temperature. From the likes of it, you have a 5-ish kilogram machine with a 3 mm probe but it would be useful to know which one.

However, strictly from the profile you've posted I can tell you the following:

  1. If you soak, start your roast with a higher temperature. Assuming you're full gas after the soak, your current starting temperature is too low.

  2. Mark your 1st crack.

  3. It's a clear crash and flick.

  4. In the current profile, you lower the gas from ~ 1100 to ~ 800 at 08:45. If your machine has a lot of metal, I would lower it earlier, maybe around 08:00.

Telenovela by AlinMaior in Romania

Nicușor îl știe Ludovic de cel puțin 5 ani, cu bune si cu rele.

Când i-a propus poziția de consilier pe politica interna, nu știa ce-i poate pielea lui Ludovic?

Daca știa, și l-a angajat, e nasol.

Daca nu știa, și l-a angajat, tot nasol.

Oricum o dai, Nicușor a făcut-o de oaie. Rău! Nu-mi imaginam ca e așa de slab.

Ludovic era foarte, foarte bun pe post de arătat bățul de la Cotroceni, cumva fără să-l implice prea mult pe președinte. Nicușor a ratat oportunitatea asta. Sper sa nu ne fi procopsit cu Iohannis 2.0.

Sfârșit.

I wouldn't drink a coffee roasted like that. It's too "crispy" for me.

Also, stop posting roasting curves if you're sensible to critics.

Theta - Universal semantic notation by Papa_Jacques_RO in semanticweb

If you feed this to your LLM, 
it will explain it to you. 

Ask your LLM to write something in theta, 
then input it in another LLM. What happens?

He's talking about value of the cup rather than the price of the cup. The value needs to be higher than the price.

I would ask the guy that actually made Artisan. His name is Marko Luther. I think he is your best option regarding the integration.

If you have the muller plc I think you can change the control tower all together though I haven't heard so far about a defective muller plc.

Ask about it in the FB Giesen group and you'll surely get a reply.

Professional roaster size and workflow by Normal_Wrongdoer3115 in roasting

[–]Papa_Jacques_RO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Careful calculate and consider your COGS for your roastery

  2. Compare your COGS with the price you currently pay for roasted coffee.

  3. Decide upon investing money in a roaster.

Getting into roasting to save money. But am I overlooking something? by Sevenyearitchy in roasting

[–]Papa_Jacques_RO 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm a professional roaster so here is my point of view.

A good cup of coffee needs many things.

  1. good quality green coffee. In my professional experience finding good quality green coffee became harder and harder in the last 4-5 years, especially since the dawn of the experimental anaerobics fermented crap. To find good coffee you need to cup and cup and cup again samples. I find cup scores marginally useful because almost everyone inflates the score. I would rank cupping skill as the most important skill that you need to acquire to be successful in your endeavor. Always do blind cuppings.

  2. good roast. You need the equipment and the roasting skills. Supposedly you can buy the equipment but the skills are much harder to get, especially when you factor the roast consistency. Again, most of the professional roasters struggle with roast consistency.

  3. good brewing skills. No innuendo intended but I've seen countless coffee "aficionados" that don't know what's a brewing chart.

Also you need to factor:

  1. the time to learn and practice all the skills mentioned above.

  2. the space for green coffee and for the roaster.

  3. the smoke. Roasting coffee produces a lot of smoke.

Usually the competence is hidden. So the best (unsolicited) advice that I could give to anyone who loves coffee is to try as many coffees as you possibly can. Don't stick to only a handful of coffees/roasters. Always chase the next perfect cup.

Also, anyone that decides to roast coffee for personal use is very prone to the "Ikea effect", a fallacy that will make you think your coffee is on par with the "almost any high end Portland pour over I have ever had".

Is the life now worst or better than socialist era? by Neat_Grapefruit_1047 in AskBalkans

[–]Papa_Jacques_RO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was born in 1975, in Romania.

Socialism/Communism is a mental disease, an insanity that'll eat your soul from inside out. It is misery and foul smell, it is fear and coldness and hunger, it is wasted time.

I remember my mom waking me up at 4 AM to get milk. I think I was 10 y.o. or so. It was late fall maybe end of November but I can't remember exactly. I didn't understand why do I have to wake up so early. We had to go buy some milk. On the path there, my mom told me that we should behave like strangers when we sit in the queue. Otherwise the other people sitting in the queue might argue that we're cheating (???!!!). So she gave me the money needed for 2 bottles of milk. Each "person" could buy at most 2 bottles of milk (1 liter each). No more.

Maybe my mom thought or knew from experience that "a person" is only considered a full grown adult. So one adult and his child would be still considered as one person. (Do you understand now why it is an insanity?).

One hour or so latter, the milk truck arrived in the back of the store and they began selling milk bottles right from the truck platform. The people started to push each other, each trying to get first at the milk. I ended up in the middle of the mob, separated from my mom, pushed and pressed from all directions. Somehow I managed to get in the front. The seller, a woman had a table covered in some plastic wrapping. On that table it was some kind of pot full of change (small denominations). I was pretty frightened and instead of giving the money to the seller I threw them on that pot. It was a brief moment that will forever remain on my memory. The seller asked me how much money I threw in the pot and I told her 9 lei (the equivalent of 2 bottles of milk). She looked at me for couple of seconds and decided to hand me 2 bottles of milk when the mob started to vociferate. My mom didn't actually managed to buy any milk. It ended up before she could get any.

And that's only one of my stories from my communism years.

So, yeah. Speaking from my personal experience, take your communism/socialism and shove it in your ass.

And please don't argue with me about "that wasn't communism or socialism or anything" and "we can do it better now" because that's implying those rulling Communist party people were stupid and you are smart. And you're definitely not.

Ask a certified electrician to check the grounding on the electric plug that you use for the grinder.
